Huevos Rancheros

Happy belated new year! Hope everyone is having a great start of the new year.We are already an entire week into the new year! Like what, how?Today I´m bringing you guys an easy, fast, healthy and delicious meal! Huevos Rancheros is a Mexican breakfast, usually you fry the tortilla and then pile on salsa, beans and a fried egg top.First of all, I could never eat this kind of food for breakfast. Way to heavy for me, I rarely eat breakfast anyway cause I have zero appetite in the mornings, so I usually drink lots of water for breakfast and then eat an early lunch or brunch really.. So this is perfect for brunch or dinner, at least for me! Second I can`t say this is authentic, but who cares when the flavors are so on point?! Basically you make a simple tomato sauce, add black beans, then you make small wells that you crack eggs in. Add your toppings and tada.. Meal done!And to all of you guys with new years resolutions to eat healthy I got you covered. My new years resolution you ask? To keep on never making new years resolution! I mean who at the end of the year looks back and goes «yeah, totally kept my resolutions»? No one! At least no one I know or heard of!

Basically by not making any resolutions nobody is disappointed at the end of the year.. Like if you gain a couple of pounds during the year thats fine cause you weren’t trying to not gain any weight.. What you lost some weight? Go ahead and celebrate that unexpected surprise with cake! Yepp those are som serious life lessons for y’all.. Your welcome!Now that I`m done spewing BS lets get down to cooking..
